Also interesting to note only 1 of 28 say they are voting because of what Biden stands for beyond he isn’t Trump.
But "Not Trump" encompasses so much ...

Also, your Biden selection only references accomplishments, and neglects character.

I'm voting for Biden's character. Corresponding accomplishments are expected ...

From Wikipedia ... Joe Biden - Wikipedia.

"He was elected to the U.S. Senate from Delaware in 1972, becoming the sixth-youngest senator in American history. Biden was a longtime member and eventually chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. He opposed the Gulf War in 1991 but supported the expansion of the NATO alliance into Eastern Europe and its intervention in the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s. He supported the resolution authorizing the Iraq War in 2002 but opposed the surge of U.S. troops in 2007. He also served as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee from 1987 to 1995, dealing with issues related to drug policy, crime prevention, and civil liberties. Biden led the efforts to pass the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act and the Violence Against Women Act, and oversaw the contentious U.S. Supreme Court nominations of Robert Bork and Clarence Thomas.

Biden was reelected six times to the U.S. Senate and was the fourth-most senior senator when he resigned after winning the vice presidency alongside Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election. Obama and Biden were reelected in 2012. As Vice President, Biden oversaw infrastructure spending in 2009 to counteract the Great Recession. His negotiations with congressional Republicans helped the Obama administration pass legislation including the 2010 Tax Relief Act, which resolved a taxation deadlock; the Budget Control Act of 2011, which resolved a debt ceiling crisis; and the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012, which addressed the impending fiscal cliff. In foreign policy, Biden led the efforts to pass the United States–Russia New START treaty; supported military intervention in Libya, and helped formulate U.S. policy toward Iraq through the withdrawal of U.S. troops in 2011. Following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, Biden led the Gun Violence Task Force, created to address the causes of gun violence in the United States.

I was asking for each persons reasons.

I also noted you polled because he isn’t Trump. It kind of negates your reasoning at this point.

Biden will be getting my vote, primarily because of healthcare and environmental issues plus he is a fellow Pennsylvanian. I don’t understand how anyone could vote for Trump. How many people have died because of his mismanagement of COVID?

I'm afraid there are going to be a lot of spite votes for Biden.

I'm Trump all the way, but that aside, I'd be afraid to vote for Biden, for the honest and simple reason, I don't think he's mentally capable of handling it...not even close, actually. Of course that is far from a fresh opinion.

You don't think Biden isn't "mentally capable of handling it...not even close, actually"? Trump is not right mentally and has never been capable of being a leader, either of government or even his own business.

There is good reason for thinking so, even if we concede that when his doctors agreed to it, there is an outside possibility that they were mistaken.

The comparison to Trump of course is silly. He can handle things all right. His enemies simply don't care for the policies he's championed.

Biden's character trumps his accomplishments as a reason for my support right now.

I think that Biden is the leader we need at this point in time.

Silly? Trump claimed that the Spanish Flu ended WWII. Trump said that American troops captured airports during the Revolutionary War. Trump said that the attack on Fort McHenry took place during the Revolution. If he believes that he is just plain stupid.

I can appreciate that, even if we are polar opposites. I think you are making an informed decision based on your beliefs.

as am I.

And this is what you are comparing to the gaffe machine that the opposition party nominated?

Former Senator Biden cannot even take questions during or after his news conferences for fear of not being able to comprehend simple questions asked by a mostly-friendly audience.

Perhaps you need to put diapers on. I don’t need them.

They are in post #63 ...
My apologies. You'd already looked up his record.

So which of those accomplishments most impress you? Half of that cut and paste deals with routine stuff like him being elected to something or being on a Congressional committee or supporting something that he didn't oversee personally. So I honestly wonder what "accomplishments" have impressed you sufficient to justify your vote.

I probably live in one of the reddest states in the union so my vote against Trump wouldn’t even show up on an ultrasound. I’ll probably write in Sanders again.
Now if I lived in a ‘swing’ state I’d definitely vote for Biden over Trump.

I could post many more examples of incredibly stupid things Trump has said.
